Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- the effect of the development on heritage assets, with special regard to the Dittisham Conservation Area and the setting of numerous listed buildings
- the effect of the development on the character and appearance of the area, with particular regard to the South Devon Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty
What decided it
The proposed summerhouse would be sufficiently screened and would assimilate with its wooded backdrop such that it would preserve the character and significance of the Dittisham Conservation Area and listed buildings' settings and would not harm the scenic beauty of the South Devon AONB.
